Louisa's point of view

It had been a genuinely terrible idea to involve Damien in my business.

That was the first thought that hit me the moment I opened my eyes, and the first text of the day didn't do much to change it.

Jude: “Ever thought about what Damien would do once he finds out what you've done?”

No. I hadn't.

My idiot self never really considered Damien actually digging up the things I'd worked so hard to bury.

I'd just assumed he'd help me handle Jude and then quietly let the w

    Liam's POVLiam had never been particularly interested in school rankings.He knew his grades were good. He knew he could do better when he put in the effort, and he knew his grandfather occasionally asked for his results during family gatherings.Beyond that, he didn't think about them much.Today, however, he found himself checking the clock every few minutes.Their project results were supposed to be announced during English, and Scarlett had been unusually quiet about it all morning.He found her outside the classroom, looking through her notes."You're going to wear a hole through that paper."She didn't look up."I'm revising.""For a presentation we've already given?""I'm checking something.""Again?"This time, she looked at him."Do you have a problem with preparation?""Not particularly. I just think you might be taking it a little far.""Some of us like knowing we've done our best."Liam leaned against the wall."And some of us know we've done our best."She gave him a fla

    Scarlett's Point Of View Scarlett had never understood why some people treated weekends as though they were a reward for surviving the school week.For her, Saturday usually meant catching up on assignments, helping around the house and making sure her younger brother didn't turn his homework into a family emergency.This Saturday was no different."Scarlett!"She closed her eyes briefly."What?""Come and check something!"She found her brother sitting at the dining table, his maths textbook open in front of him."What is it?""This question."She looked at the page."Which one?""Number seven."She pulled out the chair beside him."You haven't even attempted it.""I tried.""Where?"He pointed at the question.Scarlett stared at him."You underlined it.""Exactly."She laughed despite herself and picked up his notebook."Give me your pencil."For the next twenty minutes, she explained the question while he complained about how unnecessarily complicated mathematics could be.When he

    Liam's POV My grandfather believed in two things. First, that a man's reputation was built long before he entered a room. Second, that the Morace family had spent too many years building theirs for anyone to take it lightly. I'd heard both statements enough times to recite them in my sleep. Unfortunately, Sunday lunch meant listening to them again. "Your father tells me school is going well." I looked up from my plate. "Yes, Grandfather." "And your results?" "Good." "Good is a rather vague answer." Dad laughed quietly beside him. "He's doing well, Father." My grandfather glanced at him. "I wasn't questioning that." "I know." Mum changed the subject before the conversation could become another discussion about grades. "So, how was your meeting yesterday?" "Fine," Dad answered. "We discussed the foundation's new education initiative." My grandmother smiled. "That's lovely. It's about time we expanded the scholarship programme." I continued eating. The conversatio

    Scarlett's POVThe first thing I learned about Westbridge Academy was that people had a remarkable ability to turn ordinary information into gossip.The second was that being Liam Morace's project partner apparently qualified as interesting information.I'd barely settled into my seat on Thursday morning when Victoria dropped into the chair beside mine."So."I continued arranging my books. "So?""How's it going?""How's what going?"She gave me a look.I sighed. "Victoria, if you're going to ask me something, just ask.""Your project."I nodded. "Fine.""And Liam?"I stopped writing.There it was."What's wrong with Liam?""Nothing. I'm just curious.""About what?"She leaned closer."You two spend quite a bit of time together.""We have a project.""I know.""Then what's the question?"Victoria laughed."You're very defensive for someone who doesn't care."I turned towards her."I don't care.""Alright."She said it with a smile that suggested she didn't believe me.I decided to ign

    Liam & ScarlettScarlettTuesday mornings were usually my favourite.There was something comforting about knowing exactly what I needed to do, when I needed to do it, and how much time I had to get everything done.Today, however, I was running late.Not because I'd overslept. Not because I'd forgotten my books. And certainly not because I hadn't prepared for school.My younger brother had misplaced his mathematics textbook, and somehow, that had become my problem.By the time I arrived at school, the first bell had already rung.I hurried towards my classroom, adjusting the strap of my backpack."Scarlett!"I turned.Victoria was walking towards me, holding two notebooks against her chest."Where have you been?""Home. Apparently, my brother's inability to organise his life is a family emergency."She laughed."Come on. We're about to start."We walked into the classroom together.Liam was already seated, his attention fixed on his phone. Marcus sat beside him, saying something that

    Liam & ScarlettLiamI was beginning to suspect Scarlett Johansson enjoyed making my life difficult.It was the only reasonable explanation for the fact that she'd sent me three separate messages before eight that morning, all concerning a project that wasn't due for another two months.The first contained a revised outline.The second was a list of suggested research sources.The third was a reminder that we had a meeting after school.I stared at the messages while walking into class.Scarlett: Good morning. I've made a few changes to the outline.Scarlett: Please review them before our meeting.Scarlett: And don't forget to bring your laptop.I typed a response.Liam: Good morning to you too, boss.Her reply came almost immediately.Scarlett: Good. You remembered your manners.I stared at the screen.Marcus, who had been watching over my shoulder, burst out laughing."What's so funny?""Nothing.""You're smiling."I immediately put my phone away."I am not.""Whatever you say."I d
